What impact does Erosion have on my property?

If your property has a steep slope, or a large windswept lawn, erosion can be a problem. Typically, the first signs of erosion are simple bare areas in your lawn by wind erosion, or the washing away of your garden bed soil during rainstorms (big or small). Over time erosion can make it very tough to grown vegetation. When erosion is not controlled it can slowly become a massive problem. Beautiful landscapes that suffer erosion have the potential to turn into lifeless terrain or can even cause landslides and mudslides, especially when susceptible to large rainstorms like the Atlanta area.

4 ways to control erosion

You may not be able to completely stop your property from erosion, but there are several methods that have proven to greatly slow down the process of erosion. As an experienced landscaping and drainage company we have found several ways to help prevent erosion on your beautiful property.

One

Venyscapes drainage systems are the best way to control erosion. Drainage systems such as

French drains

Trench drains

Downspout drain lines

catch basins

Dry creek beds

Two

Terrace. This is the process of adding a stair step up the slope of your yard with retaining walls. The idea of is that the water won’t run off but will rather soak into the soil. The retaining walls can be made up of several different products such as timber, stone, concrete, or precast concrete blocks. You want the terrace to have a slope, but not too much. It is recommended to have a small slope of around 2% to prevent water pooling on the flat ground behind your retaining wall. Retaining walls can not only prevent erosion, but they can be beautiful additions to your landscape and create more usable yard space.

Three

Keeping it simple with plants. By adding plants to your sloped yard, the root system can sometimes act a natural erosion control.

Four

Large timbers or stone for erosion control. If you have a smaller slope this might be a good option to help slow down the flow of water from creating erosion on your property.
